Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

... did you even read the thread your responding to? The whole premise is a landlord making a value judgement on the additional 8 hours per day that may incur wear and tear on the property.
And to be clear, I'm not arguing the validity of that position. I'm arguing the legality of that clause. It's difficult to prove and likely prohibitively expensive to enforce, but not fundamentally illegal in much of the US. If the landlord puts it in the lease, and the tenant signs that lease, then the tenant better be prepared for argumentative bullshit from their landlord.
I did read the thread. I was responding more to this:
So, no, we wouldn't, because it's an actually defensible protection of the property to prohibit something that clearly causes permanent damage while the other is simply being at home all day. And only specifically at home while working, which makes it even less defensible since the act of sitting at your computer typing and clicking your mouse to work is no more destructive to the unit than sitting at your computer typing and clicking your mouse to post on Facebook or play a game.
Hence, they're not even remotely comparable.
